A 2023 social media post by the uncle of Bryson, the young boy whose skin condition recently moved Kenyans to tears this week, has resurfaced and raised questions online about the nature of his long-running medical struggles.
The post, attributed to a man identified as Maruti, the boy's uncle, was published on January 2, 2023, and claimed that Bryson "was instantly healed of leprosy" at a Prophet Owuor crusade held in Nakuru.
The claim attracted fresh scrutiny after Bryson's story went viral and comedian Eric Omondi stepped in, helping raise over KSh 500k towards the boy's treatment.

What has left many Kenyans perplexed is not the claim itself, but who made it. Maruti, the same person who reportedly shared the faith-healing post in 2023, is among those who have since been openly thanking Eric Omondi and other well-wishers for coming to Bryson's aid.
